You sued your doctor for medical malpractice.
You believe he was careless.
You believe his wrongdoing caused you harm and injury.
You also believe your injuries are permanent.
During the course of your lawsuit, you will have to answer questions by the attorney who represents the doctor whom you have sued. This is pretrial questioning. It's also called a deposition. Lawyers also call it an examination before trial.
In pre-Covid times, it would take place in your attorney's office, in his conference room. During Covid-times, it typically takes place virtually, by Zoom video call. There's no judge there and there's no jury there. Instead, it's just you, your lawyer, the opposing lawyer and a court stenographer. The answers you give carry the same exact weight as if you are testifying at trial.
The court stenographer records all the questions you're asked and all the answers you give.
Many injured patients and injured victims have great anxiety as their deposition approaches. They think the defense lawyer who will be questioning them is going to aggressively go after them as if he's cross-examining at trial. Others are worried that the opposing attorney will try to trick them into giving answers that are not favorable to their case.
Turns out, both of those fears are unfounded. That's not what happens.

Hi Mr. Oginski, at the end of your short, when you offer your phone number, why do you only want to talk to people who haven't filed a lawsuit yet? Thank you

It's because I don't get involved in cases that have already been started. If I feel the case is right for me, then I want to handle it from the very start.
T or false your lawyer should prepare you or prep you for a 6 hour deposition.

There are many reasons why they would ask that question. Can’t answer that in this short format.

There are a series of "getting to know you" questions an attorney will ask near the beginning, both trying to put you at ease and to assess whether you are the type of witness to over-explain answers (thereby providing new lines of inquiry/attack)
